I have run SuperAntiSpyware and Zone Alarm Anti-Virus and Anti-Spyware, and none of those programs find this Trojan. Malwarebytes Anti-Virus does not find this Trojan when run in Safe Mode, only in regular mode. I have cleared all system restore points, I have disabled Zone Alarm so it will not run on reboot and I have run Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware and rebooted into regular mode when Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware finds this Trojan, but it is still there.
(I re-enabled Zone Alarm after trying the above steps).

It confuses me that Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware does not name a specific file in the folder as being infected with this Trojan. Is this normal? Is this a false positive? Any help anyone can give would be much appreciated.

Thank you, Oldsod.
I posted there, and one person has a suggestion so far (to run Chkdsk in case the problem is a corrupted file).
I will try that suggestion, and see if any other suggestions show up there if that doesn't work.

Seems like good advice...unless there is a hidden folder named A on the root of the drive.

Re: Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware - detections?

yenooc, you know your Malwarebytes 'can collect the information' of any suspect scans/ detections
and will be sent to Malwarebytes for further analysis.<hr>In Malwarebytes - Go to &gt;
'More Tools' - if you still have the after scan results/ logs
use &quot;Collect Information&quot; and send. Look at Malwarebyte's Support and Forum on how to do this properly.<hr>I can tell you as a user of the free version of Malwarebytes - that it does 'produce false positives' every now and then. For example I had McAfee Removal Tool, Microsoft Installer Clean-up Tool, and some other un-installers
- saved to desktop, and Malwarebytes - detected it; but I was able to see the path description and I knew it was false.

Re: Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware - detections?

Thank you, Oldsod and NaiveMelody.
I have &quot;show hidden folders&quot; checked in folder options, and the only folder called &quot;A&quot; we have on the computer is a user-created folder.
I scanned all files that were not in a subfolder in the &quot;A&quot; folder with Zone Alarm anti-virus, and no viruses were found.
I have not yet tried collecting the information and sending it to Malwarebytes, that is also a good suggestion and I will try it.

I am told chkdsk could take eight hours or more to run on our computer, so will try that when I have a block of time I can risk not having access to the computer.
Also, thanks for the information that you have had false positives with the free version of Malwarebytes, NaiveMelody.
I am thinking that's what this is, but I am going to try these other good suggestions just to put my mind at ease.
Best regards,yenooc

Re: Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware detects Trojan.Agent, but no other program does

I've googled and googled and come across a few places that say it is a false positive, particuarly if the registry entry it creates is 6to4, it reads this in subkey. It has to do with IPv6 routing I found out. If your key isn't 6to4 in it, then discard this message.

Thank you for your research and your reply, nkeklund.
I posted a HJT log
in the Malwarebytes' forum a couple of days ago, but so far have gotten no responses from any of the groups authorized to help with HJT logs there.
I don't know how to tell if the registry entry it creates is 6to4; I don't go into my registry as I don't feel like I am an advance enough user to poke around in there.
Is there another way I could tell if the registry entry it creates is 6to4?
